on Friday for the premiere of a new documentary about his life, career and work as a public advocate for Parkinson’s research. He was joined by Davis Guggenheim, the director of “Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie,” which Apple will release this year. And what moved the crowd so intensely, both during Fox’s remarks and throughout the documentary, was his optimism in the face of a devastating disease. It’s one that has impaired his speech and movement, but not his razor-sharp wit.
The movie they made together is inspirational, but it doesn’t shy away from the difficulty of living with Parkinson’s, a disorder that affects the nervous system and the parts of the body it controls. On screen, Fox talks about the many falls and spills that have left him with broken bones, dislocated shoulders and bruises. At times, he admitted during a post-screening Q&A, it had gotten so tough that he began to ask difficult questions.
Fox’s family, which includes his wife Tracy Pollan and four children, is a big part of what keeps him going. Before Parkinson’s changed everything, Fox was on top of the world with roles in “Back to the Future” and “Family Ties.” It was a period in which he says could be spoiled and self absorbed, as well as a time when he drank too much . But it also gave him the kind of roles in the type of projects that have made his work so memorable and meaningful to generations of fans.

realmikefox audible_com You're still the same MJF! Did you know that Dean Koontz names a character after you in The House At The End of the World? You probably know it. It's awesome 😎 Stay strong Mike! You never know who you're inspiring!
realmikefox audible_com You are so right- nothing is too far fetched. I have been a fan for many years-think you are an inspiration to all- an amazing person and talented! My sister’s recent claims seemed too far fetched to be true. But seeing this I think I should share -in a d/m only. 🙏
realmikefox audible_com Michael will always be my favorite actor. I enjoy him. What a guy.
audible_com This is God, not me..

realmikefox audible_com Look at all the stars of that city. Look how many didn't have life with pARKinSONs. How many of them look out their mansion window, and think, the Lord has blessed my life. You know it's few. That's what's missing. Most got lost, had to be fetched.
realmikefox audible_com Has Michael tried cannabis oil? It helps with epilepsy. I believe cbc or cbn. thc/cbn will deff help with depression alcoholism. It cured my addiction to drinking 8 beer a night for insomnia.
realmikefox audible_com God bless him
audible_com MJF is such an exceptional up-beat person. The default reaction to being diagnosed with Parkinsons would probably be between somber and depression. But he chooses to view it as a surprising twist to his life story.
realmikefox audible_com So looking forward to seeing it! realmikefox has inspired a whole community living with the challenges of parkinsons! His books were pivotal in my coping with this disease...
realmikefox audible_com Starred in and led one of my fav films of all time: The Secret of my Success … for that I’ll always be grateful 🙏

The train keeps rolling. . . . .
audible_com MichaelJFoxOrg isn’t one hell of a fighter! Never complains, never has backed out of projects. Has contributed to be incredible and won’t be remembered for be an actor with Parkinson’s but for being the legend Mcfly, legendary actor and fantastic campaigner for Parkinson’s
